Buffalo RB Lynch loses license in hit-and-run case
Football Betting Lines
06/27/2008 -
Buffalo, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Buffalo running back Marshawn Lynch's guilty
plea to his involvement in a May 31 hit-and-run accident was accepted on
Friday. Lynch lost his driver's license and was fined the maximum of $100.
In the incident, Lynch's 2008 Porsche Cayenne struck a pedestrian in downtown
Buffalo and then fled the scene. The woman was left with minor injuries.
On Friday, Lynch finally admitted that he was the driver of the
vehicle, which was impounded after being found by police. But, Lynch said
that at the time of the accident, he did not believe he struck anyone with his
SUV.
"When I was making a left turn from Chippewa (Street) onto Delaware Avenue a
woman came into the road," Lynch said in a statement through his attorney.
"This woman was dancing and spinning around in the crosswalk. I slowed down
for her and when she went by I proceeded down Delaware Avenue. I was not
speeding and at no time struck the woman who was dancing and spinning. I also
never heard, saw or felt anything else that would lead me to believe that I
had struck anyone else or anything else at that time."
However, on Friday Lynch admitted that it appeared his car had struck the
woman, Kimberly Shpeley.
"At this time, I would like to put this matter behind everyone involved and
focus on the future," Lynch said.
Lynch, a first-round draft pick of the Bills in 2007, rushed for 1,115 yards
and seven touchdowns in his rookie season.
"My greatest concerns and well wishes are of course for Ms. Shpeley," Lynch
said. "However, I also wish to apologize to my teammates, the entire Buffalo Bills organization and the Buffalo fans for this unfortunate accident."

Online Sportsbook odds for Stanley Cup
New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.

To visit this online sportsbook got to MySportsbook.com for all your hockey sportsbook needs.
It's less than a month until the NHL hockey betting season opens at MySportsbook.com and preparations are underway for another battle in the race to hoist Lord Stanley's mug in 2007.
As cup crazy fans prepare to place their bets, one online sportsbook ,MySportsbook.com, is offering hockey betting lines on the 2007/2007 Stanley Cup , who will bring it home this upcoming season.
Despite a poor showing in last season's playoffs and the loss of Steve Yzerman to retirement, the Detroit Red Wings are early favourites at this online sportsbook with wagering odds of 6-1. The Wings will look to offensive powerhouse Pavel Datsyuk and newly appointed captain Nicklas Lidstrom to lead one of the league's most prominent franchises.
Always a threat are the Ottawa Senators, with newly acquired goaltender Martin Gerber from the Stanley Cup champion ,Carolina Hurricanes. The Sens are second best in the rankings at a 7-1 bet, and odds makers at this sportsbook are optimistic that the Ottawa squad will fare better than last season's Eastern Conference semi-final upset to the Buffalo Sabres.
Also worth noting are the defending Stanley Cup champs Carolina Hurricanes, a 10-1 bet to repeat. Behind the Canes are the New Jersey Devils, Calgary Flames, Buffalo Sabres, Philadelphia Flyers, and Anaheim Mighty Ducks all sit at 12-1. In the basement are the Washington Capitals, Chicago Blackhawks, and St. Louis Blues who all have 100-1 odds to win.
